In xml processing I have the following element:
<abc>
  <xyz>contents</xyz>
  <xyz>contents</xyz>
</abc>

In the code it seems to make no diffence if I write /xyz or xyz without the / for the xyz-node.
{\xmlindex{#1}{/xyz}{1}}
{\xmlindex{#1}{xyz}{2}}

In the reference manual I find the / used, as for example in {\xmlfirst{#1}{/caption}}. My question therefore: what exactly causes this behaviour? is it good coding practice to always use /xyz in this case?
